|
|
| I had an idea for some snowy mountains, probably using interiors made to look like mountains, with slopes that you could ski on, and areas for lodges and the like. It could double as a cool DM map. I really don't have much thought out for this. If anybody wants to adopt it, and work on it then that would be great. |

| mountains have been made just fine with terrain, but an interior, if done right, could look much better. Of course, if it's a large mountain, you also need a large draw-distance to render it if it's an interior... |

The original v0002 had skiing and slopes, iirc. Were you thinking interior lodges, brick-styled interior lodges, or actual builds of lodges? _________________

| I'm thinking a huge, huge mountain, larger than the terrain repeat. As well, you would build lodges, not have them premade. |

| You realize that's not going to render at all without a without an ungodly draw distance, unless Elf has done something with interior rendering. |

is it posible to be able to render interiors like a terrain datablock? _________________ "Many of life's failures are people who did not realise how close they were to sucess when they gave up."
